Deepening or just finding out just how deep it is?

Corruption is deepening: analysts – www.chinapost.com.tw

Rather than a “growing spread of the persistent rot,” the corruption has always been there. It’s just that the current focus on corruption is catching a few in its net. I’m also wondering if Professor Ren has bought into the golden age fallacy. The 20-year-old anti-graft campaign wasn’t brought in for no reason. Corruption has been a long standing social issue in China. I seriously doubt if the cadres of the Cultural Revolution were immune to using their position to their own advantage.
